1. why? because
they kick ass. they have the best lyrics since 311 or Tool. he makes great music, he has a great mind, he is a cutie, his voice is amazing, and his music is addicting. you will never get over them Faye, they are here to stay. Now go see them live this summer and hang out with them. Get drunk, have fun, and dance. :toast:


thanks, self. i needed to hear that.

8. they fall under a few 'genres'
Edited on Sun Feb-27-05 12:17 AM by Faye
i've heard people call them industrial, EBM, electronic.....futureop..........i say, just kick ass electronic music with a rock structure and amazing lyrics, with an amazing powerful voice :) my whole sig is dedicated to them, except for the election fraud bit.

actually, i don't usually listen to this kind of music, but these guys are an exception for me.

btw, if you like APC or Tool, you will guaranteed, like VNV 's lyrics. :)

14. I'll check them out too, but I have to say one thing..
as someone who has studied Russian a little, I HATE when people mis-use the cyrillic alphabet incorrectly trying to look cool..

18. They would be cooler if they didn't misuse Cyrillic letters...
Edited on Sun Feb-27-05 03:53 AM by Sufi Marmot
Sorry, a petty pet peeve of mine...

-SM

On edit: I see that Opiate69 beat me to it...I'm sure their music is cool nonetheless...
